The shower was EXCELLENT.

The room REALLY lacked soundproofing. I heard every word from the neighboring room. I expected a quiet stay and this wasn't it. I found this VERY disruptive.

super clean room easy parking great pressure missing basket plastic basket conservatory use

the room, a beautiful twin room, was super clean. i also liked the easy parking and short walk into the centre (that's quite handy!). the shower had great water pressure.

there was one minor issue. i would have liked it if the conservatory use had been included (just a personal preference). also, i thought a small plastic basket was missing from the room. i would not like someone to accuse me of being a thief.

The room was super clean and newly refurbished. The bathroom was brand new. The bed was comfortable. Check-in was efficient, and the welcome was friendly. I found parking easy and the walk into town quite short.

Breakfast being included would have been nice.
